<p>The Ada testsuite includes executable tests from the ACATS
testsuite, publicly available at
<a class="uref" href="http://www.ada-auth.org/acats.html">http://www.ada-auth.org/acats.html</a>.
</p>
<p>These tests are integrated in the GCC testsuite in the
<samp class="file">ada/acats</samp> directory, and
enabled automatically when running <code class="code">make check</code>, assuming
the Ada language has been enabled when configuring GCC.
</p>
<p>You can also run the Ada testsuite independently, using
<code class="code">make check-ada</code>, or run a subset of the tests by specifying which
chapter to run, e.g.:
</p>
<div class="example smallexample">
<pre class="example-preformatted">$ make check-ada CHAPTERS=&quot;c3 c9&quot;
</pre></div>

<p>The tests are organized by directory, each directory corresponding to
a chapter of the Ada Reference Manual.  So for example, <samp class="file">c9</samp> corresponds
to chapter 9, which deals with tasking features of the language.
</p>
<p>The tests are run using two <code class="command">sh</code> scripts: <samp class="file">run_acats</samp> and
<samp class="file">run_all.sh</samp>.  To run the tests using a simulator or a cross
target, see the small
customization section at the top of <samp class="file">run_all.sh</samp>.
</p>
<p>These tests are run using the build tree: they can be run without doing
a <code class="code">make install</code>.
